Question

Change the colour of text in questions in captivate 9

The template my client provided wasn't showing the radio buttons so I copied over a question slide from a blank project. I was able to change all of the text colour except the A) & B). Can anyone tell me where I do this? I have tried preferences and clicking on properties within the question slide. I feel like this should be a simple thing but I just can't see it.

Thanks in advance,

Jayne.

Select one of the Question Answer captions and try using the Reset Style option in Properties.  Look for it in the menu to the right of Style Name.

Hi Rod,

Thanks for the speedy answer. I was able to use a work around for the MC question by adding more answers (which appeared correctly with white text). I then deleted the other answers. For the true/false question I have tried your suggestion, selecting the  'B) caption' and selecting properties. Please see the image below, as I don't have a Reset Style option in the properties. Only Replace modified styles.

Any further suggestions appreciated.

                       

Thanks,

Jayne.

ah yes ...  I found it!

However this just sets the text 'False' back to the grey colour

As you say the workaround works well with the MC question but not the True/False.


Your Theme design appears to use a dark blue background, which is not going to be great for a grey text colour for these Answer Options.  So I would suggest you go into the Object Style Manager, locate the style for Quiz Question Answers and change it to White for better contrast against the blue background.  If only SOME of your quiz questions will have this background, then you may need to create a custom style that you can apply ONLY to answers on slides with the dark background.
